Thread: rewiring dual horns

<span style="color:blue">can you post a picture of the broken bit so i can see what the problem is exactly....


im a bit unsure as to what it is exactly you are referring to.....

it may be something that can be repaired quite easily.....</span>

Its a set of flat wires like an internal computer wire to the HD, which is wound around the steering column loosely a number of times, to transmit the signals from the horn cruise control etc. Give me a brass rubbing ring anytime.
I have seen in a Pom mag that if it is broken near the end you can cut off the wires and refit them into the plug. Maybe a longshot.

<span style="color:blue">cant the break by bypassed by simply soldering a link over it....?

i need a pic i think.....</span>

Thanks for the replies, but I cannot find any way to open it up
with out completly wrecking it, by lifting the edge of the revolving
centre piece I can see the top edges of tape, the wreckers are
asking $250 for a used one with no guarantee, so its either a new
one or rewire the horns to a manual switch and spend the money on
a set of rock sliders.

Howdy: If you haven't already figured you need a RAVE CD, now is the time. I was looking at the wiring diagramme for a MY95 Disco, since I'm in the process of removing my Airbag and associated bits. According to the RAVE, all thats required is to ground the PO (Purple with orange stripe) wire. That trips the relay and the horns activate. The diagramme also mentions the ordinary steering wheel setup which is a slip ring : Find an early Disco and buy the standard steering wheel with the slip ring module. Or, unplug the coupler, take a splice off the PO wire and install a simple push button on the dash that leads to ground.
